About this resource

About

Ekso Bionics is a pioneer in powered exoskeleton technology for medical rehabilitation, founded in 2005 as a spin-off from the UC Berkeley Human Engineering Lab. The company develops the EksoNR and Indego Therapy exoskeletons for use across inpatient and outpatient neurological rehabilitation settings.

What It Does

The EksoNR enables weight-bearing gait training for patients with spinal cord injury, stroke, MS, and brain injury, using variable-assist technology that automatically adjusts support to match the user's own muscular effort. The Ekso Bionics website provides a clinic-finder tool, patient resources, and clinical evidence summaries for both patients and healthcare providers.

Who It Helps

People with lower-limb neurological impairment—including spinal cord injury, stroke, multiple sclerosis, and acquired brain injury—who are seeking gait rehabilitation through a clinic or hospital. This is a facility-based programme rather than a direct-to-consumer product.
